EP. 212: Today I'm joined by Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, obesity specialist, Lipidologist, and founder of Vineyard, a cutting-edge direct care platform. We're diving deep into the conversation you've been asking for: the real story behind GLP-1s, obesity as a chronic disease, and why treating it goes far beyond weight loss. We break down everything from proper dosing, common side effects, and the dangers of vanity prescribing to the systemic issues with telemedicine and PBMs. Dr. Nadolsky and I also discuss strength training, preserving muscle mass, and how GLP-1s may support metabolic and cardiovascular health beyond their FDA indications. This episode cuts through the noise and misinformation. If you care about metabolic health, this one's essential. Topics Discussed:  What are the real benefits of GLP-1 medications beyond weight loss? Is obesity truly a chronic disease, and how should it be treated? What are the risks of GLP-1 vanity dosing and fast titration? How do GLP-1s impact muscle mass and metabolic health? Why are telemedicine and PBMs problematic for obesity treatment?

A large contingent of Silicon Valley CEOs followed President Donald Trump to Saudi Arabia this week, where a number of them announced billions of dollars in AI-related investments and business partnerships. Mohammed Soliman, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute, says this is the new Middle East — where the relationship with the U.S. is driven by tech and innovation, not just oil and security. On POLITICO Tech, Soliman tells host Steven Overly how this new arrangement benefits tech companies and Gulf nations — and why it's necessary if the U.S. hopes to stay ahead of China.  Steven Overly is the host of POLITICO Tech and covers the intersection of trade and technology.

Sen. Kathleen Kauth's Stand with Women Act, LB89, made it through the second round of debate in the Nebraska Legislature Wednesday evening, but not before an amendment stripped it of a key provision. Sen. Kathleen Kauth's Stand with Women Act, LB89, made it through the second round of debate in the Nebraska Legislature Wednesday evening, but not before an amendment stripped it of a key provision. Sen. Merv Riepe was one of 33 senators to vote for the bill on the first round of debate, but he said he would only advance it further if changes were made. Those changes included removing a requirement for students at K-12 schools and universities to use bathrooms and locker rooms corresponding to their biological sex.

Leadership is a word that has become completely bastardized in modern culture. Everywhere you turn, someone is hyping you up on why you need to become a better leader, the benefits of leading versus following, and how exactly you should do it. But what if I told you, it's not the tactics that make you a leader but the mindsets that spell the difference. My good friend, brother, and leadership coach, Kipp Sorensen, joins me today to talk about what it really means to lead in a world where every man thinks they're leading well. We address the two types of destructive leaders, the “BAR” acronym (behavior, actions, results) and which to focus on, how 83% of people in the workforce view their position in the company (and what you can do about it), why a “compensation” package is about more than just money, and the do's and don't's of effective leadership.

Recognize that God's commands are the same Parent's must train children Having a special needs child doesn't negate the responsiblity to train any more than it negates our responsibility to care for them. Our culture often believers it does (it negates our responsibility to care for them) Abortion is usually the answer Giving them away as a foster child or giving them up for adoption is another way Having a special needs child means that you have a greater responsiblity to train and care Parent's must bring them up/nurture them Remember that you are not alone.  GET HELP   4.  Recognize that behavioral issues are to be solved with patient teaching and training ODD; ADHD; ADD are quite normal and will become worse if left alone A child left to himself, brings his mother to shame *** Want to hear Pastor Dave Young preach?  Westwood Baptist Church Westwood Baptist Church Podcast

Continuing our series on defining farmers markets we like to wonder: what if everyone in a region or in the country agreed on one set of best practices and one set of rules for farmers markets? In this episode we're talking with Dr. Kim Hutchison and Meredith Ledlie Johnson about how the Virginia Farmers Market Association has done just that. Bringing in multiple stakeholders helped create consistent standards. Education and certification of managers and farmers markets provides validation and a sense of pride. Leveraging that recognition to negotiate managers' compensation and public policy are additional benefits.    Listen in as we talk about: Creating consistent standards Recognizing our industry's strengths Bringing multiple agencies to the table Documenting the work we do How certification affects salaries    Today's episode of Tent Talk, the Farmers Market Podcast, is supported by American Farmland Trust

When people ask you about yourself, what do you say? How do you define who you are? As Peter continues to guide us toward hope, he reminds us that the hope we have in Jesus shapes and defines who we are and how we live. But what does this look like?

In this episode of Nomadic Diaries, we sat down with Tanya Crossman, a leading expert on Third Culture Kids (TCKs) whose personal experiences and professional work have made her a trusted voice in the global mobility community. Tanya's Third Culture Journey Tanya Crossman's journey as a TCK began with moves between Australia and the United States during her childhood, following her father's career path. Her cross-cultural experiences deepened significantly when she later spent 13 years living and working in China. These formative experiences across different continents gave her unique insights into the TCK experience that would later inform her professional work and writing. Finding Community Among the Misunderstood After years of feeling like an outsider in her own culture, Tanya discovered the profound relief of finding others who shared similar experiences. This revelation became the foundation of her life's work, as captured in her powerful quote: "I'm not alone has become a mantra for so much of the work that I do." Defining the Third Culture Experience Tanya brings clarity to what it means to be a Third Culture Kid, addressing common misconceptions and explaining that the "third culture" isn't a specific place but rather the shared experience of growing up among different cultural worlds. She explores how TCKs develop a unique cultural identity that combines elements from their passport culture, host cultures, and the expatriate community itself. Emotional Intelligence and TCK Challenges One of the most valuable insights Tanya shares is how the TCK experience can affect emotional development:A tendency toward emotional suppression as a survival mechanism during frequent transitionsHow this suppression can hinder the development of healthy conflict resolution skillsThe importance of creating safe spaces for TCKs to process complex emotions about mobility, identity, and belongingGuidance for Parents and Caregivers Tanya offers practical wisdom for parents raising children across cultures:The importance of preventive care rather than crisis interventionCreating environments where emotions can be expressed safely and processedUnderstanding that TCKs are "growing up in a completely different world than you are"Recognizing the unique challenges and opportunities that come with a globally mobile childhoodResources for the TCK Journey Tanya highlights the growing body of resources available to support TCKs and their families:Her book, "Misunderstood," which explores common threads in TCK experiences"Third Culture Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds" (often called the TCK Bible)Practical tools for parents, educators, and caregivers working with globally mobile children Connect with Tanya For more resources on supporting Third Culture Kids:Personal website:  tanyacrossman.com TCK Training:  tcktraining.com  Support the showHome is Where Your Story Crosses Borders!We aim to inspire expat solutions, by helping you navigate global living with Confidence.

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes Decide, Define, Deploy, Defend: Your Path to Change May 8, 2025 | Episode #5089 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Are you ready to change your life, but get stuck in the same old patterns? In today's episode, Scott breaks down his powerful 4-D approach to creating a genuine transformation in your life. As a transformational coach (not a life coach!), Scott delivers the practical, no-nonsense advice to stop the cycle of false starts and finally achieve your goals. Featured Story Scott shares an encounter with a gym member, Chris, who was trying to “battle through” a difficult time after a poor relationship. While Chris thought he'd figure it out alone, Scott challenged him to immerse himself in wisdom instead of waiting to “get wise with age.” The story perfectly illustrates why surrounding yourself with knowledge and staying in the game leads to change faster than you'd imagine possible. Key Takeaways Transformation starts with a firm decision - no more pussyfooting around or getting “blown in the wind” - the commitment itself fuels your journey. Defining your path eliminates aimless wandering - you don't need to see the entire journey, just enough to take the first step and allow the path to brighten as you move forward. Taking “massive imperfect action” beats waiting for perfection - messes can be cleaned up later, but progress only happens when you deploy your plan despite the inevitable mistakes. Memorable Quotes “More is on the other side of less.” “Take massive imperfect action because you're going to make a mess, anyway.” “If you will immerse yourself in wisdom and training, even if you don't get the answer, just stay in the game. You'll change faster than you think.” Scott's Three-Step Approach Make a firm decision today about what you want to change and commit fully, even when others question your choice. Define your path with clarity - create a roadmap showing you exactly where to start, knowing you only need to see the first 10% of the journey. When deploying your plan, understand that messes are inevitable and can be cleaned up after you make progress by taking massive, imperfect action.

In episode 689, Dr. Kristen Wager teaches us how to use research to drive our content strategy, in order to predict what content will perform well instead of guessing what our audience wants. Dr. Kristen Wager is a consumer researcher with over 15 years of experience and a Ph.D. in research. She has worked with major companies like Google, Amazon, and Meta, gaining firsthand insight into how research shapes strategy and drives growth. While these companies invest billions each year to understand their audiences, she believes creators deserve access to the same level of insight. Most recently, Kristen led consumer research at Raptive, collaborating with some of the biggest food bloggers in the industry, including Half Baked Harvest, Tastes Better from Scratch, Just One Cookbook, Hey Grill Hey, and The Woks of Life. During this time, she developed a deep appreciation for the creator space and identified a significant gap: many creators lack access to first-party data to inform their business decisions. When Raptive ended its research program, Kristen launched CreatorPulse to continue supporting creators—particularly in the food and lifestyle space—with real-time audience feedback. Her mission is to help creators make smarter, data-backed decisions that truly reflect what their audience wants. In this episode, you'll learn how to build a purposeful, proactive content strategy, how to leverage research to guide your approach, and why this can have a powerful impact on your food content business. Key points discussed include: - The Importance of Research: Research is crucial for understanding your audience's needs and evolving trends, helping you predict content success rather than guessing. - Moving Beyond Gut Feelings: While intuition has its place, relying solely on it can lead to echo chambers and content burnout; scalable growth requires data-backed decisions. - Defining a Strategic Content Strategy: A proactive content strategy is built with purpose, intention, and your audience's needs in mind, aligning with your business growth. - Methods of Research: Use various research methods, from simple polls to in-depth surveys and social listening, to gather audience insights. - Types of Research: Different types of research, like audience insights, competitor benchmarking, and brand perception, offer unique benefits for shaping your content and brand. - Real-Time Data: Emphasize real-time data to stay ahead of trends and understand current audience needs, rather than relying solely on historical performance metrics. - Turning Data into Action: Translate data into actionable steps by identifying content themes, creating messaging frameworks, and aligning content with business goals. - Busting Research Myths: Overcome misconceptions about research by recognizing that it doesn't have to be time-consuming or expensive, and that audience feedback is invaluable.

I'm Josh Kopel, a Michelin-awarded restaurateur and the creator of the Restaurant Scaling System. I've spent decades in the industry, building, scaling, and coaching restaurants to become more profitable and sustainable. On this show, I cut through the noise to give you real, actionable strategies that help independent restaurant owners run smarter, more successful businesses.In this episode, I dig into one of the biggest blind spots in our industry: the real reason guests walk through our doors. Most restaurant owners think we're selling food or service — but that's not it. What we're actually selling is transformation. People come to us because they want to feel something — connection, escape, celebration, comfort. When you start to understand the emotional and experiential shifts you're providing, your entire approach to marketing changes. I lay out how to identify the transformation your restaurant offers and how to communicate that clearly to your guests. When you stop selling tasks and start selling outcomes, revenue follows. This one's about shifting your mindset so you can grow smarter, not just harder.Takeaways:Most restaurant owners are selling food, but successful ones sell transformation.The clarity of the promise is crucial for growth.People buy experiences, not just products.Identify the memorable moments in your dining experience.Transformational marketing can lead to higher prices and customer loyalty.Define the transformation your restaurant provides.Map out your unique process for delivering that transformation.Price based on outcomes, not inputs.Marketing should reflect the emotional resonance of your brand.Engage your team in understanding the transformation you offer.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Restaurant Profitability01:12 Understanding Revenue Ceilings and Transformation02:39 The Shift from Selling Products to Selling Experiences04:06 Defining and Delivering Transformation05:32 Marketing the Transformation EffectivelyIf you've got a marketing or profitability related question for me, email me directly at josh@joshkopel.com and include Office Hours in the subject line.

The biblical command to love others might be more about social contracts than warm fuzzy feelings. What if "love your neighbor" wasn't just a moral cliché, but a radical political theory? In this week's Madlik episode, we explore how the biblical concept of love in Judaism goes far beyond sentiment, representing a powerful social contract that shapes how we build just societies. Challenging Conventional Wisdom Many associate "love your neighbor as yourself" with Christian teachings, unaware of its origins in Leviticus. This episode aims to reclaim this foundational concept, examining it through the original texts and a Jewish lens and uncovering its profound implications for social and political philosophy. Key Insights: • Context is crucial: The commandment appears alongside practical economic and ethical guidelines, suggesting a broader application beyond personal relationships. • Love as action: The Hebrew phrasing implies loving what's good for your neighbor, focusing on welfare and justice rather than emotion alone. • A tool for ethical decision-making: The Bible creates a thought experiment that by considering what we'd want for ourselves, we gain a framework for fair treatment of others. • The gift of giving: Some interpretations link "love" (ahava) to the concept of giving (hav), emphasizing generosity as a core expression of love. Rethinking Love as a Social Contract Geoffrey Stern challenges us to view "love your neighbor" not just as an individual ethical guideline, but as a foundational principle for structuring society. This perspective aligns fascinatingly with the work of political philosopher John Rawls. Rawls' "Veil of Ignorance": • Imagine creating a society without knowing your place in it (rich/poor, talented/average, religious, secular etc.) • This thought experiment forces us to consider fairness for all, not just the majority • It echoes the biblical command to love your neighbor "as yourself" – putting yourself in another's position "What if 'love your neighbor' is the measuring stick we need to use when creating a just society?" - Geoffrey Stern Practical Implications: • Rethinking social safety nets: If you didn't know whether you'd be born advantaged or disadvantaged, what protections would you want in place? • Balancing opportunity and security: How do we create a system that rewards initiative while ensuring basic dignity for all? What if “neighbor” refers less to someone of the same religion, tribe or ethnicity and more for someone who one wishes to form a social contract with? • Defining community: Who counts as our "neighbor" in an increasingly interconnected world? Challenges to Consider Emotional agency: Can love truly be commanded? While we can't control feelings, we can cultivate loving actions and mindsets. Balancing self and other: How do we interpret "as yourself" without neglecting self-care or enabling codependency? Applying ancient wisdom: How do we translate these principles into modern policy and social structures? What We Learned About Love and Justice This exploration of "love your neighbor" reveals it's far more than a simple ethical maxim. It's a powerful tool for ethical reasoning, a guide for building just societies, and a challenge to constantly expand our circle of moral consideration. The next time you encounter this familiar phrase, consider: • How would your decisions change if you couldn't determine where you stood in your social system? • What would our communities look like if we used this principle as a foundation for policy-making? • How can you actively practice this form of love in your daily interactions and civic engagement? By reframing "love your neighbor" as a radical social contract, we unlock its potential to transform not just individual hearts, but entire societies. This episode of Madlik invites us to see love not as mere sentiment, but as a powerful force for justice and human flourishing.

My guest today is David Senra. David is the host of Founders podcast and a dear friend. This is our third time doing Invest Like the Best together and we have conversations like this one all the time. In today's episode, David distills wisdom from 400 entrepreneur biographies into a single word: focus.

David challenges us all to find the one thing we'd pursue even without recognition or reward, or what I like to call your life's work.

Discover how developing a flexible leadership mindset can transform your effectiveness as a woman executive. Our exclusive interview with Kevin Eikenberry, author of "Flexible Leadership," reveals powerful strategies for women leaders navigating today's complex business landscape. Why Women Executives Need a Flexible Leadership Mindset In today's rapidly evolving business environment, a flexible leadership mindset isn't just beneficial—it's essential for women executives who want to maximize their impact. According to McKinsey's 2024 Women in the Workplace report, women now hold 29% of C-suite positions, up from just 17% in 2015, yet the path to gender parity in senior leadership still extends decades into the future. For women executives facing unique challenges, developing flexibility in leadership approach provides a powerful advantage. A flexible leadership mindset allows women leaders to navigate complex situations while staying authentic to their core values. Defining the Flexible Leadership Mindset for Women Executives What exactly constitutes a flexible leadership mindset? According to Kevin Eikenberry, it means maintaining consistency in your core values while adapting your approach based on circumstances: "Flexible leadership means being consistent in our what and our why—our principles, values, and purpose—but flexible in our how," explains Eikenberry. "Like a mature tree that's firmly rooted yet bends with the wind, women executives with a flexible leadership mindset maintain their foundation while adapting their approach." The hallmark of this mindset is recognizing when "it depends" is the appropriate answer—and then thoughtfully considering what factors it depends on before determining how to proceed. About Kevin Eikenberry – Flexible Leadership Author Kevin Eikenberry is the author of over 20 books, including his latest, 'Flexible Leadership: Navigating Uncertainty and Leading with Confidence.' As the founder of the Kevin Eikenberry Group, he's advised leaders at organizations worldwide and created transformative leadership programs like the Remarkable Masterclass. The Business Cost of Inflexible Leadership for Women Executives Women executives who lack a flexible leadership mindset often find themselves locked into rigid approaches with statements like "that's just how I lead" or "they'll have to get used to it." This inflexibility creates significant limitations: Forces one approach onto diverse situations requiring different solutions Creates an identity barrier that's difficult to overcome Reduces opportunities for innovation and team development Dramatically lowers the odds of success in complex environments Reinforces potential gender stereotypes rather than transcending them Research indicates that companies with women in leadership positions are 30% more likely to outperform others—suggesting that when women executives leverage flexible approaches, organizations benefit. The Flexible Leadership Framework for Women Executives To help women executives develop a flexible leadership mindset, Eikenberry introduces the Cynefin Framework (pronounced kuh-NEV-in) as a tool for making sense of different leadership situations: 1. Clear Contexts for Women Executives Situations where cause and effect are obvious, best practices exist, and processes are established. Traditional leadership approaches often work well here. 2. Complicated Contexts for Women Executives Scenarios requiring expertise but where systems remain fairly ordered. Women executives benefit from gathering diverse perspectives before making decisions. 3. Complex Contexts for Women Executives The most common leadership environment today—where interconnected factors create unpredictability. Women executives thrive here by testing approaches, learning quickly, and adapting. 4. Chaotic Contexts for Women Executives Rare crisis situations requiring immediate action. Women executives need to act decisively to stabilize the situation before transit...

To experience God's best, it is important not to live in deception. This especially applies to us because believing the wrong thing causes us to deceive ourselves. Operating too long in deception can harden our hearts and lead us to believe a lie. We are all susceptible to this; God therefore wants to work with us to help us stop fooling ourselves. Letting Him guide us in this area keeps our spiritual eyes open so that we can see the dangers of associating with the wrong kinds of people and avoid being corrupted. When we see others in self-deception, we must tell them the truth, but do so in love. Studying God's Word concerning this keeps us from falling into this trap.   To support the ministry financially, text "CDMPodcast" to 74483 or visit www.worldchangers.org.
